[Reader-list] Need for Transcriber/Translator

[Ayona Datta]

Apologies for cross postings

Please circulate widely.

There has risen a need for an experienced transcriber and translator for a 
British Academy project titled 'Mapping the Architecture of Control and 
Resistance'. The major duty is to transcribe taped English conversations 
into word documents and translate and transcribe taped Hindi conversations 
into English word documents. The audio files are in digital format which can 
be played on Windows Realplayer or equivalent. The successful applicant can 
do this work through email/internet as long as proper correspondence and 
contact is maintained with the principal investigator on this project.

This is a short term commitment which will last around four months 
(full-time) from the beginning of the appointment. The successful applicant 
will have excellent knowledge and experience of using word processing 
software as well as fluency in both Hindi and English. Knowledge of cultural 
phraseologies in Hindi is also an advantage. The successful candidate will 
be chosen on the basis of a short translation and transcription that he/she 
will be asked to do as part of the selection process. Salary will be 
commensurate with experience and quality of work.

Interested applicants should contact me on ayonadatta at hotmail.com for 
further information.
